Everyone has their own way to do their job, but as pleco652 said that's how I've personally done many of these. Winch the front of it on the deck then set back on the dolly. They almost had it right the second time, but they did at least get the job done. Not the prettiest but it was done
I get this a lot, I lift the two front wheels up with a spreader on my spec lift then pull the dolly out side ways, put the car down and show the customer how to do it properly.
Looks like a user error situation. Tow dolly works fine....Looks like the vehicle obviously wasn't strapped AND chained properly, so don't blame it on the dolly....
We use this dollies all the time , you have to check and adjust straps every time you stop for gas because they always get loose , budget and Penske have better straps with locks that don’t allow it to come off
I only have this happen one time I had a scrap car on my dolly I wasn't Towing it far so why did not fully strap it down I had a tight enough to where it would not come off but when I stopped and went over the front but unlike this guy I got it back on Dolly myself with a floor jack and a steel rim without a tire but the moral of the story is make sure you have everything strapped down correctly lol
had the same thing happen to my brothers 94 cadillac but we took the floor jack and lifted each side and put blocks under the wheel eventually we got it high enought the car rolled back onto the dolly maybe when loading it i should have stressed the importance of stopping to my brother as we pushed it on the dolly as he sat inside steering it
First one needs to have a few pieces of wood, When I towed I always had wood on board. Then you Jack up each tire with a floor Jack. Use the control arm thus lifting the tire and not the body of the jeep. Then put the wood under the tire on both sides of the jeep. Then drive or wench the jeep off the trailer.
Wow. Still trying to figure out how we end up in this position. Did the guy try & load the Jeep on the dolly without the dolly hooked up to a hitch & drive over the tire plate? Did he have it properly hooked up & did the Jeep move it self over the tire plate, while hooked up to a hitch, & than after the Jeep moved you dropped the dolly off the hitch? I know I rented one of these dolly's last year from U-Haul & moved a 69 El Camino & a 70 Chevelle about 30 miles. We had a couple issues getting situated, but was able to get things worked out. I ended up pulling both by the rear axle up on the dolly. Neither car was operable so what we had to do was use floor jacks, wood, & car stands to left the rear tires up 16" ground clearance, & than position the dolly under the tires, drop the car on the dolly, strap them down & off we went. Took about a total of 5 hours from picking up the dolly to dropping it back off & costs like $60.00. Well worth the money to move a couple of rides that need a lot of work.
Phil's Midwest Classic Cars i think they just drove it without a car attached to the Jeep, how else could it have traveled two feet past the the wheels
First of all you never should have unhooked the dolly from the car. You grab a chain and hook it to the back of the jeep and pull. I've accidently over shot a vehicle on a dolly several times. grab the axe jack from the back of the jeep and fully collapse it. Place in on the dolly under the jeep. Find a good spot to jack from. Use blocks from the tow trucks to bring the jack as close to the underside of the jeep as possible while fully collapsed. Jack the jeep up high enough to clear the front of the doll. put jeep in reverse and drive slowly. The jack should fall sideways and the jeep should clear the front of the dolly.
For eveyone complaining how the workers damaged the jeep, it was already damaged from driving over the tow dolly! Talk is cheap!! LET'S SEE YOU DO IT!!!
There a lot of ways to fix this problems without the help of the tow truck Been in that position many time never had to call for a tow truck !!!!! Save money
Josh I own a towing company and have seen this happen to many times where people try saving money only to spend 5x more. When things go wrong, like trying to tow a full time 4x4 and messing up the trans, transfer case! That’s the reason people should consider having a professional do the job!
You can’t back a car up on a dolly this will happen only forward also uhaul has a better one than most it has a 6 inch high peace guard to prevent this but it still can happen
i am a tw truck driver and that's just two rookies trying to get that car off with the bed lol instead of the wheel lift right on to the tire chain it short and lift it and roll the dolly out what idiots
I didn't see them do any damage. It looked kind of funny the way they were lifting it up, hell I thought they were gonna flip her over for a minute there. I really didn't see the crew do any damage. I know the guy trying to use the dolly on the Jeep did some damage, but I didn't see the incident.
WonderTwat Sure you can.. you just shift the transfer case into neutral and shift the transmission into neutral too just for good measure. The drive shaft will spin while driving but if its in neutral who cares. This is all if your driving a real 4x4. Not the push button shit on the dash.
Depends on the transfer case, some do not have a "selectable" neutral. Jeeps included! Not that it matters that one appears to have been driven over the front of the dolly.
Got it! The drivers foot slipped off the clutch and he pressed the accelerator instead of the brakes. I've learned something else about Americans again today. Wonder if he voted trump? No don't go there!!!
Normally the tow dollies won't fail, but the installation of the tow vehicle fails...
too many tow trucks not enough brains
Sure are a lot of expert tow truck drivers in the comments.

Right!!!!!

Rule number #1. Never get in a pinch point. In this case a crush point. Always avoid putting your body or your limbs in harms way.
We use this dollies all the time , you have to check and adjust straps every time you stop for gas because they always get loose , budget and Penske have better straps with locks that don’t allow it to come off
roberto very true if these people who loaded the vehicle had used the safety chain that comes with the U-Haul dolly this wouldn’t happen!
I only have this happen one time I had a scrap car on my dolly I wasn't Towing it far so why did not fully strap it down I had a tight enough to where it would not come off but when I stopped and went over the front but unlike this guy I got it back on Dolly myself with a floor jack and a steel rim without a tire but the moral of the story is make sure you have everything strapped down correctly lol
risky business lol i just used a dolly for the first time and i was shittin bricks the whole time.
had the same thing happen to my brothers 94 cadillac but we took the floor jack and lifted each side and put blocks under the wheel eventually we got it high enought the car rolled back onto the dolly maybe when loading it i should have stressed the importance of stopping to my brother as we pushed it on the dolly as he sat inside steering it
Lol 😂 😆 😝 the driver made a big mistake when I saw this video I laughed because it was too hilarious 🤣
Pull the flatbed away. Back a regular tow truck w a hook. Lift the front of the Jeep & pull the dolly forward & out
!
Looks like they didn't use wheel straps...
HEY,, HOLD MY BEER AND WATCH THIS!!!!
I dont think tow dolly failed its the driver failure over driven to the dolly
First one needs to have a few pieces of wood, When I towed I always had wood on board. Then you Jack up each tire with a floor Jack. Use the control arm thus lifting the tire and not the body of the jeep. Then put the wood under the tire on both sides of the jeep. Then drive or wench the jeep off the trailer.
Today’s i learn the do and don’t do when doly fail😀
Wow. Still trying to figure out how we end up in this position.

Who dressed those two guys.. Pugsley Addams?
Funny that it was too difficult for the dude in black to figure out how to pull the dolly out from under the rollback🤷🏼♂️🤣
The THREE STOOGES towing co.😆😆😆
Awesome
always a good advice to crawl under a lifted bed, etc. OMG
I know, WTF???
But did they die? No lol
@@Schippy-es2eb no but they live to do it again. Lo
Dude can barely walk lol f it. He ain't doin nothin else anyway.
How many monkeys does it take
For eveyone complaining how the workers damaged the jeep, it was already damaged from driving over the tow dolly! Talk is cheap!! LET'S SEE YOU DO IT!!!
@j j 2021 yeah but who cares!
Had this happen once and we got a bunch of people from the apartment complex together and just lifted the car up as someone pulled the dollie forward
I don't understand why they left the window rolled down.
Just roll the jeep over and off...lol
This hurt to watch! 😅
There a lot of ways to fix this problems without the help of the tow truck
Been in that position many time never had to call for a tow truck !!!!!
Save money
Josh kid how would you lift the car from the front without a tow truck
Josh

If you've been in this position many times before, doesn't that tell you to stop using towing dolly's?
Thanks for the detailed explanation on how to fix the problem. It really adds a lot of weight to your claims.
Basically use the jack.
It really not that hard
You can’t back a car up on a dolly this will happen only forward also uhaul has a better one than most it has a 6 inch high peace guard to prevent this but it still can happen
Adeus cárter.kkkkk
someone sure goofed loading on the dolly
My respect for those who know how to drive and back up with a loaded TOW DOLLY.
I have backed up tow dollies for years never once had this happen the straps were not secure.
i am a tw truck driver and that's just two rookies trying to get that car off with the bed lol instead of the wheel lift right on to the tire chain it short and lift it and roll the dolly out what idiots
Lol had this shit happen to me the other day. Shit happens
Dude said,"don't put me in the picture!"
???
And then at the end of the video he turns and talks to the person with the camera? Go figure
wheres the straps gone
Wrong tow truck used duhh
Lol that was comical hour thanks guys
its a fail on the tow driver's. it took 3 people and they still did damage to the jeep
I didn't see them do any damage. It looked kind of funny the way they were lifting it up, hell I thought they were gonna flip her over for a minute there. I really didn't see the crew do any damage. I know the guy trying to use the dolly on the Jeep did some damage, but I didn't see the incident.
Why did not back the towtruck a couple of feet until the jeep to clear the dolly and done deal!!!
"Oh God!......Someone had my wife try to load their Patriot on a tow dolly."
ασχετοι τελειως
How many dudes does it take to tow a car? The world may never know....
Oops!
really guys u got a combo there u should jave had this done and u are still holdem hands boom out hook lift plenty of room to remove dolly
Oooops.
That'll be a $10,000 dolly, according to U-Haul...
Hope they bought the insurance.
😂😂😂
Any idiot could see it wasn't going to work to try and raise one wheel on the Jeep.
Get a torch and cut the dolly out from the jeep
Your both fired
How the hell does this even happen to begin with? Someone not know something so simple as to load a car on a dolly?
smh ...
how did that even happen
Since the ramps were down it could be that whoever drove the Jeep up on the dolly drove with to much force and ended up going over the stops.
fuzzy wuzzy my guess is they tried to back the dolly with the car on it. You can't do that. You can only go forward.
Jackassery is how it happened.
I work for uhaul.. cant put rwd vehicles on tow dolly. its as simple as that
WonderTwat this particular jeep is front wheel drive.
You can, if you remember to pull the rear driveshaft, but who does that?
WonderTwat Sure you can.. you just shift the transfer case into neutral and shift the transmission into neutral too just for good measure. The drive shaft will spin while driving but if its in neutral who cares. This is all if your driving a real 4x4. Not the push button shit on the dash.
Depends on the transfer case, some do not have a "selectable" neutral. Jeeps included! Not that it matters that one appears to have been driven over the front of the dolly.
WonderTwat that is a front wheel drive car . you might want to know this for next time
.not rear drive
Whoel lot of stupid involved in this video, and I'm not just talking about the person who use the uhaul as a speed bump.
I am not stupid my wife is my sister
Got it! The drivers foot slipped off the clutch and he pressed the accelerator instead of the brakes. I've learned something else about Americans again today.
Wonder if he voted trump? No don't go there!!!
